NOTES:
Press the Bake or Convect Bake
pad to recall the preselected tem-
perature during preheat.
To change oven temperature dur-
ing cooking, press the appropriate
Bake or Convect Bake pad and
the appropriate number pads for
the desired oven temperature.

As a general rule, when convec-
tion baking, set the oven tem-
perature 25° F lower than the
conventional recipe or prepared
mix directions. Baking time will
be the same to a few minutes
less than directions.
When roasting meats using the
convection setting, roasting
times are generally 25-30% less.
(Maintain conventional roasting
temperatures.)
See roasting chart in "Cooking
Made Simple" booklet for recom-
mended roasting temperature and
times, and additional baking and
convection cooking tips.
You may find that the cooking
times and temperatures vary
slightly from your old oven. This is
normal. Every oven has its own
characteristics.
